Denim tote bag pattern, Shoulder bag pattern, Upcycle denim

You can make this upcycled denim bag with the image of houses from recycled clothing. I sewed it from old jeans and also used an old dress as a lining. It is a reusable grocery bag, very durable and practical. This tote bag with outside pocket is very comfortable and roomy, you will love using it in different situations – for shopping, walking with children, as a weekender bag, travel bag or lunch bag. This is a quilted bag with a lining.
